Hierarchical organization of rhesus macaque behavior [PDF]
Oxford Open Neuroscience, 2021 ABSTRACT Primatologists, psychologists and neuroscientists have long hypothesized that primate behavior is highly structured. However, delineating that structure has been impossible due to the difficulties of precision behavioral tracking.

Automated chair-training of rhesus macaques [PDF]
Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 2016 Neuroscience research on non-human primates usually requires the animals to sit in a chair. To do this, typically monkeys are fitted with collars and trained to enter the chairs using either a pole, leash and jump cage. Animals may initially show resistance and risk injury.

BMC Genomics, 2007 Background Macaca fascicularis (cynomolgus or longtail macaques) is the most commonly used non-human primate in biomedical research. Little is known about the genomic variation in cynomolgus macaques or how the sequence variants compare to those of the ...

Hominoid-specific de novo protein-coding genes originating from long non-coding RNAs. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2012 Tinkering with pre-existing genes has long been known as a major way to create new genes. Recently, however, motherless protein-coding genes have been found to have emerged de novo from ancestral non-coding DNAs.

The rhesus macaque as a success story of the Anthropocene
eLife, 2022 Of all the non-human primate species studied by researchers, the rhesus macaque ( Macaca mulatta ) is likely the most widely used across biological disciplines. Rhesus macaques have thrived during the Anthropocene and now have the largest natural range of any non-human primate.

Systemic lupus erythematosus in a rhesus macaque [PDF]
Arthritis & Rheumatism, 1993 AbstractWe describe the clinical course and histopathologic findings in a rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) which developed a systemic inflammatory disorder resembling systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The manifestations of the SLE included antinuclear antibody, hemolytic anemia, membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, and arthritis. To our knowledge,

Stem Cell Research, 2016 We generated a rhesus macaque induced pluripotent stem cell (riPSC) line, riPSC89, from rhesus embryonic fibroblasts (REFs). Fibroblasts were expanded from the skin of a rhesus macaque embryo at embryonic day 47. REFs and riPSCs had a normal male (42, XY)

Rhesus Macaque iPSC Generation and Maintenance [PDF]
Current Protocols in Stem Cell Biology, 2017 AbstractThe rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) is physiologically and phylogenetically similar to humans, and therefore represents an invaluable model for the pre‐clinical assessment of the safety and feasibility of iPSC‐derived cell therapies. The use of an excisable polycistronic lentiviral STEMCCA vector to reprogram rhesus fibroblasts or bone marrow ...

CXCR4- and CCR5-Tropic HIV-1 Clones Are Both Tractable to Grow in Rhesus Macaques
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 A major issue for present HIV-1 research is to establish model systems that reflect or mimic viral replication and pathogenesis actually observed in infected humans.
